Journal Impact Factors

Journal impact factors are published by the Journal Citation Reports of Thomson Scientific’s Institute for Scientific Information. A journal impact factor is a “measure of the frequency with which the ‘average article’ in a journal has been cited in a particular year or period.” JCR calculates the impact factor of a journal by dividing the number of current year citations to the source items published in that journal during the previous two years. ISI Journal Citation Reports are available online.
